What Kind Of Christian Is Christopher?

 WHAT KIND OF CHRISTIAN IS CHRISTOPHER?

"Here is the patience of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus" -Revelation 14:12






I have a real problem sonetimes with the label Christian. Why? There are thousands of denominations of Christianity, and almost without exception, they all have something in common...

...that for the most part, they teach or believe the Law (Torah, Mosaic Law) is not binding on Christians today.

"For the commandment is a lamp, and the Torah is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life" - Proverbs 6:23


However I realize its the label people are most familiar with.


If I had to give a label to what I identify with, the closest label I have found is Torah Observant Christian. 

"Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled." - Matthew 5:17-18



I believe in Jesus (Yeshua), and the Torah... or the law of Moses. 


Meaning I believe the laws of the Old Testament are still in effect, though not all can be observed at this time. 

What is sin? 👉"Sin is the transgression of the law" - 1 John 3:4


So yes the 7th day Sabbath, the 7 biblical feast days (Passover, ect), the dietary laws, ect.

"You must not add to or subtract from what I command you, so that you may keep the commandments of the Lord your God that I am giving you." - Deuteronomy 4:2

How are we saved? 
"For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God." - Ephesians 2:8

However...
Do we, then, nullify the Law by this faith? Certainly not! Instead, we uphold the Law."   - Roman's 3:31







Note: There are those who believe Apostle Paul broke the law (Torah), but Paul himself told us otherwise in court. And Peter said the unearned misunderstand him. 


Who is Jesus? He was not only a man, and not just a great prophet.

"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace"         - Isaiah 9:6



If I had to pick one sect that aligns closest to my beliefs, it would likely be the United Church of God. (With the exception of how they view biblical marriage, polygyny being biblically lawful...regulated by Torah but never condemned or forbidden as sin.)


This is the video 📹 that changed my view on the 7th day Sabbath. Its packed with so much scripture it was impossible for me to ignore.
